Dr. Lee joined the Scientific User Facilities Division of DOE’s Office of Basic Energy Sciences in January 2010 as the program manager for X-ray and Neutron Scattering Facilities.

Dr. Lee has over 20 years of experience in materials and structural chemistry research, employing synchrotron radiation conducting research and later as a beamline scientist at synchrotron facilities for over 18 years. He has constructed and managed a number of beamlines at NSLS and later at APS. Before joining DOE, Dr. Lee worked at APS from 1997-2009 as beamline scientist and served as lead scientist for the Structural Science Program at the X-ray Science Division of the Argonne National Laboratory. During 1992-1997, he managed beanlines at NSLS that were operated by the Synchrotron Radiation Group of the Materials Science Division at the Argonne National Laboratory. From 1991-1992, Dr. Lee operated a protein crystallography beamline at NSLS for the Biology Department of the Brookhaven National Laboratory.

He has authored or coauthored over 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals and made numerous oral presentations at national and international scientific conferences. He is the member of the American Chemical Society and the American Crystallography Association.
